Pot Still vs Column Still: Choosing the Right Distillery Equipment
Choosing the right distillery equipment is crucial for any craft or commercial spirit producer. The main decision is whether to use a Pot Still or a Column Still.
Pot Still
- Batch distillation, small-batch production
- Retains rich flavors and aromatic compounds
- Ideal for whiskey, brandy, rum, and artisan spirits
- Lower initial cost, higher labor input
Column Still
- Continuous distillation, high-efficiency output
- Produces high-purity, clean-tasting spirits
- Suitable for vodka, gin, rum, and large-scale production
- Higher upfront cost, lower labor, scalable for commercial use
Key Takeaways
- Pot Still → Craft, flavor-focused, small batches
- Column Still → Commercial, high-volume, consistent spirits
Choosing the right still ensures your commercial distilling equipment meets production goals, flavor standards, and operational efficiency.
